There’s no place like home, and we have a pretty great place to call home. The mitten state is very near and dear to our hearts here at Venue, and we hope you are as proud to be a Michigander as we are. After all, we stick with Michigan through all of its crazy weather mood swings, and that is something to be proud of. Today, we’ve got 8 tops that you can wear to show off your love for the Great Lakes State. In the spirit of things, we also decided to take the photographs at our favorite spots in South Lyon.

1. Michigan Music

There have been countless musicians that have come from our home state, and this shirt celebrates them all. The names of Michigander musicians form the shape of the state in this pretty blue tee. From Eminem to Aretha Franklin, our state has produced a lot of talent to be proud of.

Perhaps the guitar player at the Corner Café will be Michigan’s next breakout star. If you’re a music-lover, this tee is a must-have. You can pick up the Gateway Michigan Rocks Tee at Venue for $33.

Any surprise you?

2. Great Lakes Girl

One of the most defining features of MI is the fact that it’s surrounded by the largest group of freshwater lakes on Earth. Almost everyone in Michigan has enjoyed a summer day on one of the Great Lakes beaches. Next time you head out to the water, keep yourself warm from the cool lake breeze with this super soft sweatshirt.

Do you know where this rock wall is? If not, keep an eye out next time you’re out and about in South Lyon! In the meantime, grab the LIVNFRESH Great Lakes Girl Hoodie for $60.

3. Michigan Beer

In addition to some of the world’s best musicians, Michigan has also produced some pretty great beer. Buy the shirt and use it as a beer bucket list to try them all!

Sometimes the best thing to do in town is having a cold beer on your own deck. Dress for the occasion by picking up the Gateway Michigan Tapped Tee for $33.

How many have you tried?

4. South Lyon Coordinates

If you want to show some love for your city, this South Lyon shirt is the one for you. First, it has adorable elbow pads. Second, it’s super soft and comfy. And third, the “o” in “love” actually has the coordinates of South Lyon. So cute!

Love this place indeed! Especially the old train in front of Witch’s Hat Depot. Such a cool South Lyon spot! The Gateway Love This Place Long Sleeve sells for $44 at Venue.

5. Coordinates Sweatshirt

The coordinate design also comes in this adorable striped sweatshirt, if you want something a little heavier. Or get both and rock your SL pride no matter the weather.

If you haven’t taken a spin on the McHattie Park merry-go-round, you have not had the full SL experience. Pick up the $60 Gateway Love This Place Hoodie at Venue and wear it on your next walk in the park.

6. Great Lakes, Great Times

If you liked the Great Lakes sweatshirt from #2, you’ll love this adorable tee that reps the lakes and the fun times they’ve given you. With a cute design and fun fonts, it’s the simple graphic tee that your wardrobe needs.

One of the best photo ops in South Lyon? We think so! And it’s the perfect background to show off the Detroit Shirt Co 50/50, which is available at Venue for $28.

7. Michigangster

Looking for the perfect way to show off your love for Michigan and your street cred? Look no further than the Michigangster tee. This cute top is one of our favorites here at Venue. After all, who doesn’t love a good play on words?

Is there a more iconic South Lyon spot than the Witch’s Hat Depot? We love the old Witch’s Hat just as much as we love the Michigangster Michigan Awesome Womens Tee, which sells at Venue for $28.

8. The Hand

Any Michigander knows that one of the best parts of living here is being able to show others where you live by pointing on your hand. This tank is the perfect way to show some love for your hand-shaped home state.

Nothing says summer like the South Lyon waterfall turning on for the year. Which means it’s time to break out the tank tops! Get this Michigan Awesome Tank from Venue for $24
